The tour was nice, but for the price i expected a little more, we only went down the charles river a little way and came back, it was also kind of cold so that didn't help, my two year old daughter had a good time but she had a lot more fun at the marketplaces at Faniuel Hall, and those were free. We are from Michigan and it was our first trip to Boston, i don't recommend it on your first trip, it is more fun to just walk around the old parts of the city, which is also free. The accordion player and the gondolier were extremely nice though |

I wanted to do something special for my girlfriend on our anniversary and this was absolutely perfect. I expected a lot from the tour because I'm a poor college student who was not used to paying this much for a date, but they delivered on what they said and more. Every employee bent over backwards to give us the best possible date and I can't thank them enough for making me look romantic without really trying.
Absolutely reccommend!! |

My boyfriend got put on call Friday nite so I called on Saturday morning...talked to Joe and he happily offered me a gift certificate so we can enjoy the gondola in the spring.
This was a delightful surprise because the website said no rescheduling.....I was so disappointed that we were unable to go Saturday nite, however, Joe was VERY professional and accommodating. I will tell everyone what a wonderful experience I had and I look forward to surprising my boyfriend in the spring with a romantic evening on the Charles with Peligrino (hopefully) serenading us!!
Thanks, Joe!! |

The personnel who ride you around are excellent, courteous, and knowledgeable. The tour is a must for couples. Extremely romantic with perks along the way. Blanket to keep you warm if it gets cool. |

Last Sunday I took my husband on a surprise Gondola ride on the Charles. We just moved to Boston recently and what a great initiation to the city. Everything was perfect, the day couldn't have been anyore beautiful and the service was amazing. We were treated like VIP. Our gondolaire and accordian player were fantastic.
We'll definitely do it again next season! |

In celebrating an engagement, I surprised my fiancee with a weekend in Boston to include a gondola tour. I highly recommend Gondola di Venezia as the onsite staff were extremely professional and helpful. A sunset tour, accordian player, authentic gondola, and basket of delicious treats, warm apple cider and blanket (all provided by the tour company) truly made for a romantic occasion. Both my fiancee and I would definitely recommend a gondola tour of the Charles River for a couple celebrating a romantic event or for anyone looking for a unique experience. |

For a company that pretends to cater to their customer's every need, our needs were surely NOT met by ANY means. We travelled to Boston specially for this and were turned away on the last beautiful day of the summer. Money was refunded, however, I never plan to return to this business. |

Best kept secret in Boston! |

The Gondola tours of Boston are the best kept secret in town. I proposed to my wife on one of theri rides a year ago, and we went back again this year to celebrate our one year anniversary. Very a super romantic time, book the tour with the accordion player and basket of cheese and crackers! thanks Joe! |

What can I say--everything was perfect. I took my husband on a surprise gondola ride to celebrate his new job and he has been raving about it ever since. It was so relaxing and beautiful out there on the Charles River. The only problem is that we really didn't want to get off at the end of our ride! Indeed I'd recommend it to any and everyone, particularly those of you who are looking for a unique and romantic night out. My only recommendation would be to make sure that you leave yourselves enough time to find the location where you get on the gondolas. Each of the two gondolas can hold up to 6 people, so it would be a fun thing to do with a group of 12 or less as well. |
